Ohio lawmaker Bob Latta announced Monday night that he tested positive for COVID-19, becoming the second reported breakthrough COVID-19 infection in Congress this week. The 65-year-old Republican lawmaker is at least the 13th fully vaccinated member of Congress to test positive for the virus this year.
"Recently, I was notified that someone I was around who was vaccinated tested positive for the coronavirus," Latta tweeted. "Even though I am fully vaccinated, to be cautious, I got tested because of the exposure. Today, I got the test results, and I did test positive for COVID-19."
Latta said he is not experiencing any symptoms, but is quarantining in accordance with CDC guidelines.
